Douluo: Phoenix God Descends, Emperor Flame Burns the Sky

Chapter 602 The thought of Lin Xiao dying makes me incredibly sad.

"Brother Xiong, all you need to know is that if you succeed, not only will your strength be restored, but it will also experience a qualitative leap."

That's what the Red King said.

Xiong Jun felt as if thousands of ants were crawling inside him, making him extremely uncomfortable.

It said impatiently:
"Hey, you three-headed hellhound! Do you dare to tease me because I've lost an arm?"

"Believe it or not, once I regain my strength, the first thing I'll do is beat you up! Hmph, I don't even need to recover my strength, I can take you down with just one bear paw!"

Red King: "..."

Xiong Jun truly lives up to his reputation as the epitome of simple-mindedness and physical prowess.

Has it forgotten that it still needs to rely on itself to treat itself?

If it weren't for knowing that Xiong Jun was only this smart, and that this was a task arranged by Gu Yuena, Chi Wang would have already secretly sabotaged things to let Xiong Jun experience the dangers of the world.

"Since you're so eager to know, I might as well tell you."

"My lord's solution is to use a peculiar metal to forge a bear paw for you. That metal is a divine material. If it is fused with your flesh and blood, it will not only be able to unleash the Sky-Tearing Claw of your Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear clan, but it will also have the attribute of devouring life force."

"If you succeed, you will be even harder to kill in the future, given your already thick skin and tough flesh, and your attack power will increase dramatically."

Upon hearing this, Xiong Jun's eyes lit up, and he said happily:
"Not bad!"

"My lord is still the best to me!"

"After hearing what you said, I feel like with this divine metal, I could even go toe-to-toe with the Beast God!"

Just as Xiong Jun was overjoyed, Chi Wang suddenly poured cold water on him.

"But don't get too excited yet."

"Are you aware that this metal has the property of devouring the life force of enemies? In that case, you would also be easily affected by its backlash?"

"Even during the process of recognizing a master, if you fail to suppress it, your immense life force might be drained!"

"At that time, no one will be able to save you!"

Upon hearing this, Xiong Jun's excitement subsided, and he said with considerable apprehension:
"Is this thing really that powerful?"

"So what's this thing called?"

A look of seriousness flashed in the Red King's eyes.

"This thing is called the Gold of Life."

“I’m not kidding you. This is truly a god-level material, and extremely rare. Lord Xiong, the Lord has asked me to ask you one last time.”

"Do you want to install the Life Gold or not?"

Xiong Jun barely considered it.

"install!"

A fierce glint flashed in its eyes, and its mouth opened wide as it sneered:

"Red King, have you forgotten my personality? Heh, ever since I broke a bear paw, I feel like my spine is broken too, and I can't even straighten my back!"

"I'd rather die in agony, I'd rather be drained of my life force like a dried-up corpse, than tolerate my strength regressing so much! I will avenge myself!"

"Stop talking nonsense, let's get started!"

The Red King sighed.

"alright."

"Don't rush. Let me melt down the living gold first. After I've melted it down, you can cut off a bit of your severed arm and then install the shaped living gold onto the severed arm."

Xiong Jun said fiercely:
"it is good!"

……

Lake of life.

Lakeside.

A woman wearing a long purple dress, tall and voluptuous with a large, round bottom and ample bosom, possessing a graceful figure and a cool, aloof demeanor, exuding charm.

He was frowning, staring blankly at the shimmering lake.

This woman was none other than Zi Ji.

Her eyes seemed to hold endless sorrow.

A sigh reached my ears.

Behind the woman in purple, a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in emerald green, with an extremely gentle demeanor and a more voluptuous figure than the woman in purple, was walking gracefully towards them.

Brigitte said softly:
“Good sister, I don’t remember you ever doing this before.”

"In my memory, my sister Ziji was never troubled by anything. She was very noble and elegant. Her favorite thing to do was to wash the scales off her body in the lake to keep her clean." "Or she would take a lazy nap in the afternoon."

"But, Murasaki, since when have you had so many troubles?"

"Is such a huge change in you a good thing or a bad thing?"

Murasaki gave a self-deprecating laugh.

"Sister Brigitte is joking. How could it be a good thing to go from having no worries to having a mind full of worries?"

Brigitte shook her head.

"That's impossible to say."

"If life were completely without any troubles, it would be too boring. Moreover, troubles reflect a conflict with the current situation, which means that your heart is struggling and conflicted."

“Sister Ziji, if you don’t experience any growth or inner conflict, you will never know what you truly want or what you like.”

Upon hearing this, Zi Ji suddenly turned around, her captivating and aloof eyes, like amethyst crystals, filled with earnestness.

"Sister Brigitte, please tell me, what should I do now?"

"I'm really distressed."

Brigitte's face revealed a gentle smile, like the sunshine on a snowy day, capable of melting away all gloom.

She said softly:

“Sister Ziji, I care about you very much, but this is all I can do. If you want to find the answer to the question, you should ask yourself.”

Follow your heart.

Even if a choice leads to a dismal outcome.

"No regrets, no complaints."

Zi Ji clenched her fists and glanced at Bi Ji with a complicated expression.

"elder sister……"

"Go ahead, I'll cover for you."

Murasaki whispered:
"Thank you."

"Silly girl."

Biji pulled Ziji into her arms, cupped her aloof and alluring face, tapped her forehead, and pressed her head against her chest.

Murasaki felt as if she were submerged in a vast expanse of soft waves, as if she had become a free fish, swimming in the warm sea.

A tear rolled down Murasaki's cheek.

Brigitte gently brushed it away.

then.

Zi Ji suddenly stood up, transforming into a long and beautiful demonic dragon. She gently spread her wings and flew towards the sky.

Brigitte watched her leave, muttering to herself.

Who is right and who is wrong?

"What Zi Ji is really worried about is that human Lin Xiao, who possesses a strong phoenix bloodline, the supreme among all birds..."

"And the prophecy of the power of fate..."

"What will you look like in the future?"

……

After leaving the area of ​​the Lake of Life, Zi Ji suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the location of Tian Dou City.

She must go and return quickly.

They had to get back before the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest and Gu Yuena discovered them.

Brigitte told her to ask her own heart.

Her heart told her.

She didn't want Lin Xiao to die.

This wretched human, so lowly, so hateful, dared to ride on my back, yet was so gentle with me.

Why do I feel this way when I think about the possibility of him dying?

Can't help feeling sad?
